Posted 13 years agoHey guys.
I just noticed I hadn't submitted anything in over a month...Yea, needless to say I've been busy. (Kinda)
As you all may know I helped run RuroniKon, a new local convention in the Rio Grande Valley and can honestly say that I was one of thouse who were at the top of the command chain. That was fun. (No really, I was stressed, broke down and cried twice, damaged my feet medically, but over looking the bad, it was one of the best experiences I've ever had.)
But something you guys may not know...is that I am finally over my depression. Or at least this spell, I doubt I've been "cured" of it. I know exactly why and when this happened and all I am really going to say about it is that it happened one day before the convention and have gained a really close friend becuase of this. Unfortuntally the past few days I've had a light inkling of my depression returning, and I think I know the exact cause of this one aswell. Actually, I think it's a bunch of events all happening about the same time that is starting to get to me...but I'll try to fend it off as best I can. That...or destroy the source of this suspected upcoming bout before it happens.
My dumbass has managed to get myself wrapped up in anouther slew of events that will take up some of my time. Granted, not a lot of it...but I suspect that I will not be creating much art either. Besides having other things to do...I am still pretty uninspired when it comes to art. (But when it comes to photography...there is so much I want to work on...yet I don'thave a working camera or any supplies to actually do nice shoots...regardless) So yea. I have two drawings plus an overdue trade that I'll be working on...other then that...yea...
The good news is that I get to chill at the beach with a bunch of friends this weekend, and next weekend my sister is going on a senior feild trip to Houston which means I'll be booted from the house that weekend as well...Anouther excuse to go hang out with friends! Yays! There is also two conventions coming up soon, so they should be fun.
After I get all this shit done...I don't even know.

Posted 13 years agoHia guys!
All I can say is DAMN. Damn I was so busy and stressed all week. But fuck did I enjoy myself.
RuroniKon is over and I honestly hope that I will be able to be a slave to RuroniKon x2 Next year. I did so much work, went through so much hell, almost killed a GOH, was drunk off of sleep depravtion...and so much more. I swear the Kon lasted a week, not 2 and a half days. <3
I'll be giving my full Con Report in a few days. I've been home sense monday...but I am still way to out of it to want to do anything. XD SO give me some time.

Posted 13 years agoSo the con starts tomorrow. I don't have everything done.
...I'm going to die. :D
...I'm going to die. :D
Next week...o.O
Posted 13 years agoI am not dead! So there is that. (Even though from my last submissions and my tumblr, one might assumed I have)
No updates on art, stories, essays, or art for a while, I am sorry. But..life man, life has a way of getting in the way of, well everything really. Sowwy. :<
So if you don't know, I am the assistant manager for a little catering group called the Cutie Mark Café (Bronies...so weird.) which is a Japanese maid café. (Bear with me, I understand the name makes no sense in relation to the topic.) As the business head of the organisation I get to do thrilling things such as create bank accounts, negotiate contracts, order business cards and stress over things not going as planed (amongst a list of other things)
And, if you read my "What is "Furry"?" Essay, then you -might- know I will be hosting a panel at RuroniKon on the furry fandom! What we are, what we do, what is anthro, address the silly ever present rumours among other topics. Because of my panel-hosting-ness I've been working on my visual and verbal presentation. The going is...slow. The essay/outline was very quick to pen...but can I put together this essay in a reasonable amount of time? No. XD
While I do not care for Anime, my friend has dragged me into cosplaying with her at the Con. Thankfully she picked a non-anime character for me to go as, so I am working on sewing my Jafar cosplay. (Looking like a man; make-up, binding, deeper voice...this should be interesting to pull off) But because I dyed my hair red, people would stab me if I didn't cosplay the chcick from Brave. (Thankfully, my mom used to make medieval dresses and has two green ones, so I don't have to start from scratch) But...that's not all. XD There is also a ball the friday of the Con, so I was thinking about repairing one of my mother's medieval ball gowns to go to that event with. And...of course, because I work at the maid café, I also have to bring along my maid cosplay. (Thank god I finished that two conventions ago..) So...four cosplays...two days. My god have mercy on my soul. (Then of course I have to bring my "normie" clothes for the furry panel)
That café I mentioned before...Well, we'll be catering at the con, so I have go negotiate with the hotel Restraunt manager about what our cut is. So...I hope that goes well...
Oh, and did I mention all this needs to be done by the Con! Which is September 14-15! Which is NEXT WEEK! :D *twitch*
Oh, also! Wooots! I finally made it to 1000 page views! :D

Awkward moments and I
Posted 13 years agoHey guise.
I am alive. I know I haven't made a peep sense "The Last Day" but that was purely out of bad timing. I haven't killed myself. (Yet?)
Anyway, I will be on a...semi-hiatus due to my mom taking away my computer privileges because she found me using MuTorrent on the computer. So yea. She also banned me for WORKING. Granted, my "job" is an assistant manager at this catering café that is a not-for-profit company...which means I don't actually have a wage...but still. Its. My. Fucking. Job. My boss literally doesn't know how to run a business and will fall appart. Thank god for phones. I have been using my mom's smartphone to get on Facebook and such to be able to communicate with people, but yea.
I'm not dead...Just banned from the computer for a while.
Which means I am going to get a job, even if it's just for a few weeks, so I can go buy a little laptop or netbook so this shit never happens again. I love my Mom so damn much...but really? Ban me from doing my job....
Hopefully the next time it will either be because I got myself a little computer or my ban was lifted...
'Till then,
Mieyth Wolftear (AKA Lonesome_Wolfe)

Mah List-of-Stuff-to-do
Posted 13 years agoHey guise!
Just another up date for my shit to do list!
I should be getting my supplies for Golden Sands this week! :D But other then that, the style for TGS and the RefSheets are going along pretty well.
On to non comic things:
I am finishing the logo for the café I am now the assistant manager of. (What I got my self into I have no freaken’ clue) Along with actually getting all the business end of that tied up, actually, done, cleaned, or how ever you wish to call it. Boy is that a lot of work.
Also, I have a commission for a logo that I am waiting for approval on to continue.
Working on my half of an art trade. (Sketching right now)
Still waiting to get white paint for this painting/acrylic catharsis idea I have.
My friend has convinced me, that despite the fact I hate anime, I have to cosplay some chick, from some show I don’t even know for a convention that I am doing work for. So eventually I’ll have to get started sewing my cosplay.
Music wise, I am working with the maids and butlers at the Café I manage to get an ensemble going. My primary focus right now is getting every body that can play together to decide on songs, and I need to get a count of who wants to play to so I can edit the score for Suyursis’s theme (From Memoirs of a Geisha) in a way all the instruments we have play corresponding parts, and so it just generally sounds very good.
Similarly, I am working on editing the choreography for one of the dances for the male part so they don’t have to dance as if they were females. (It looks really damn funny right now.)
Of course however, amongst all this, I need to remember to actually sleep like a regular human being. Which is hard for me to do. XD And, sadly I almost relapsed in my “depression” of sorts, so I still have to deal with the source of that.
But on a completely different and fun note: sometime this week I am getting my first tattoo! Of a little ahnk, less then an inch long, most likely on my left breast.
On a really side note: I am never going to Spencer's with my parents again...When my mother found the lingerie and the whips....First she was like "Oh Devin, that would look great on you" MOooom! Then she grabbed one of the whips and kinda flicked it, looking at my father...She never ceases to scar me...

Rage Quit?
Posted 13 years ago...Me and a friend just anthropomorphised my camera and a very lewd conversation revolved around it...
Fuck, I guess I need some sleep...
XD My poor sleep deprived, stress induced little brain....

Golden Sands and excuses.
Posted 13 years agoHello guys,
Sorry for the lack of comic updates. Don’t kill me...yet. XD I actually am going to start over with the illustrations. From critiques I realise that the flow of panels are actually not quite as clear as I thought they were, so I’ll be redoing the pages I have done so far. Also, I am working on restyling it, which means I need to gather some new supplies. Illustrating a comic on standard printer paper SUCKS, so…yea. Cardstock. When I have some monies, I’ll go buy some. (That…and I also ran out of printer paper…so yea.)
In the mean while I have been doing sketches, kind of figuring out how I want the new layout to be, and I decided I should make ref-sheets for the main characters because apparently there has been confusion with the two gryphons looking to much alike. I am working on correcting that.
But I am also working on doing more prose. Non-fiction, but more specifically analytical essays of hopefully a substantial nature that will cause people to think. Even if I am not right in all my assumptions, it’s my wish that my distorted view of reality will influence others to think.
…And now I have no more to say. :D Yay. Woot. Weeeeeeee!
FILLER SPACE FOR THE WIN. RAWR. :P

An Apology
Posted 13 years agoHey guys,
I know pretty much everything I have been writing, drawing, photos, painting has been all ‘bout whinny, insignificant emo shit. And I am so fucking tired of myself, its not even funny. All I fucking did today was mope in my room, drawing a single stupid sketch and a I watched a movie. That’s it. It fucking sickens me to be acting like such a spineless ass-hat. There is absolutely no reason for my actions. None. I have a good, peaceful life, yet somedays I act like I am living in a tragedy. No doubtably it’s partially the lack of negativity in my life that influences me to act in such a…unforgivable manner.
Now, don’t get me wrong, there is something of some slight subsistence bothering me…but the gravity of it is so small it would be a waste to describe it here. And guess what? If I would just fucking forget it and move the fuck on…It wouldn’t bother me. No it isn’t tragic. It’s not interesting. It’s just fucking stupid.
Last night…I cried. Yes. Cried. I generally do not cry for myself. Or for much of anything anymore. Anybody that really knows me can attest that death doesn’t touch me so much anymore, that the atrocities on the news barely makes me sad, that I can sit through that damn damn commercial with that angel song about abused animals an nary a tear be found. Fuck, the last time I cried was a little over a year ago, my junior year when I was about to commit suicide. At least then there was a purpose for thouse tears.
Right now, there is none.
I am going to try to knock some fucking sense into my skull and finally get the fuck over the stupid, useless, whiny funk I am in and start actually doing something. Don’t know if I will fail, or if I will succeed, but I am going to try.

Going to Hell Just a Little Bit Faster :)
Posted 13 years agoToday I hung out with my grandparents, whom are baptist and they had to go to this church-y thing and while I was just chillen' at their house, I was workin on a very NSFW story and some pictures to go with it. Naturally their church event interupted my art groove...But I didn't let that stop me.
I am so going to hell. The entire time I was there I was drawing or writing this NSFW part of the story. Yea. Oh, and some of the drawings were furry. So I am double-ly going to hell. :D (You know...just in case I wasn't going there any-ways.)

Command
Posted 13 years agoThis is not art realated at all. Mostly personal life related. Made an interesting discovery 'bout myself today.
I am writing down this story about me and a particular friend of mines’ little risqué adventure, and as I was recalling the information so I could write this journal entry out, I noticed every time he asked me (more like commanded me) to do something…I never thought about it. I just did it. No matter what turmoil was brewing in my brain about something…as soon as he gave me an order to do something, I instantly relaxed and did what he told me.
…He is the only person I have ever met that had that calming effect on me… Huh, makes me wonder about this ability to control me that he doesn’t even know about. Mostly, why does he have this power to sooth me… Be it a good or bad thing -I have yet to decide which it is- it certainly is fascinating to know I have so much unwarranted trust in this boy.

Colour Pencils Halp?
Posted 13 years agoHey guys,
Sorry for the lack of updates. I am working on Golden Sands, and I want to be more regular about updates...we'll see how that goes. Actually, ya'll will be in for a surprize, but I'm not gonna spoil it. ;>
I also decided I really need to paint this idea that has infected my brain...so hopefully some day I'll get the pelminary photoshoot (for refrences) done. If all goes well, the subject will be human, but its doing to be dark -in many ways then one. So I'm pretty pumped to start doing that.
BUT The whole reasons for this journal was to ask my fellow traditional artists out there on some colour pencile advice.
I'm gonna be getting a job which means I can splurg on a good set of several hundred dollar colour pencils, but I don't know which are best: Prismacolour or Faber Castell. I hear people praise, rant and rave about both of them...but I want to hear some advice from my watchers.
I'm thinking I might go with buying the 150ct set of prismas and mabye a 40 set of Faber...but, still I'd like some advice.
TL;DR-Prismacolour or Faber Castel colour Pencils?

Incoming sketch dump
Posted 13 years agoSo, I got some shite that I need to upload that I haven't gotten around to.
Some of it will be my depressed catharsis from the week prior to OmniCon, some will be some of my Sumi-E art and FINALLY...
I'll be posting the two pages of The Golden Sands, that I have been -secretly- withholding. A note on pages 3-4 of TGS...they WILL be NSFW. So you are warned. But mostly...I feel they are not...well done? I don't like how I have drawn it simply because I lack the experience and skills to properly draw what I tried to do.
I'll upload them. Hopefully soon. So...yea.
Oh, also...SHAMELESS SELF PROMOTION TIME!!! Please come visit me on Tumblr. (Hehe, ask me ANY question and I'll answer publicly. :D ) http://mieyth-wolftear.tumblr.com/

Posted 13 years agoYou know that saying "Friends don't let friends run cons." ? Well, me and my friend must really freaken' hate each other.
I just got back from OmniCon....I left thrusday and just got back. Yea. I was only working staff with my friends cafe, but my friend who does the business end of the Cafe gave me her job so she could go work with the poor overworked PR guy for anouther con.
Actually this story is way to long to type.
In short I have just voullenteared the next few months to RurionKon AND the Cutie Mark Cafe and on top of that I need to get an actual job (along with my driver's licence) so I can help pay for things...So yea. Lets extend this hiatus...On top of that I am still going to be leaving for boot camp in the next few months so yea....
I am pretty stressed about this whole con mess and the cafe mess for reasons that are to many to explain.
So yea....
I will still try updating the Golden Sands whne I can but...I really hope you guys understand.
(Oh, and I wrote this assoon as I got back, so it sounds a bit rushed, sorry.)
I just got back from OmniCon....I left thrusday and just got back. Yea. I was only working staff with my friends cafe, but my friend who does the business end of the Cafe gave me her job so she could go work with the poor overworked PR guy for anouther con.
Actually this story is way to long to type.
In short I have just voullenteared the next few months to RurionKon AND the Cutie Mark Cafe and on top of that I need to get an actual job (along with my driver's licence) so I can help pay for things...So yea. Lets extend this hiatus...On top of that I am still going to be leaving for boot camp in the next few months so yea....
I am pretty stressed about this whole con mess and the cafe mess for reasons that are to many to explain.
So yea....

Sorry for the Hiatus!
Posted 13 years agoI know I haven't posted anything in a while...I have been busy.
I have a lot of things to work on. This weekend I have a silly little anime con that I am working at, so July 6-7 I will be gone. Also July 5 I might be gone with a friend. And the two days that I have left, I have to work on my maid costume/uniform for the cafe I will be working on at OmniCon....So that leaves no days to work on art for long stretches of time. Also, I need to make little sumi-e paintings...TRY to make some anime (ew. I don't know if I have mentioned it before...but I HATE anime so this is going to kill me) drawings/paintings, in-between costume sewing.
Also, I have some gift art that I HAVE to make. This woman its for paid for a nice hotel room for my family to stay in this weekend AND gave ME A FUCKING SADDLE. Not that I will use it very often as it is an Australasian saddle, and I don't like horns, and prefer English saddles...but still. She doesn't even really know me...and she gave me a nice saddle.
Comic Info:
Golden Sands Page 3 is 90% completed. Just some back ground stuff.
Golden Sands Page 4 is 80% completed. Working on Background things.
Golden Sands Page 5 is 10ish% complete
Gift Art Horse is...I dunno. I keep redoing it, and there will be more then 1 painting.
Gift Art couple is...40% completed.
Omincon work...I dunno. I guess I will be done when I am sick of working.
Japanese maid costume is not even started. I have some sketches of what I am going to make, but that's it.
NEXT WEEK!! I should be back to normal, barring what even stuff I need to do around the ranch, so I should be able to work more steadily on Golden Sands.

Gonna Stream Tonight
Posted 13 years agoYup, I am going to try streaming again tonight!
I am going to be inking and possibly painting some gift art for a specific gryphon and roo very well known in the fandom.
First I think, I am going to be working on several gift paintings for a dear family friend of mine. The subject will be several of her horses, one large painting, and a hand full of tiny ones.
Then I will get into some Golden Sands work
And near the end, or after I get fustraited with the first two things, I will be open for some stream sketches. (Rule on the sketches, sexual NSFW requests not allowed. Nudity is okay though.
I'll try streaming starting at 10ish central time. THOUGH, I can start later or earlier.
When I actually start streaming, I'll post a little submission that says that I am on UStream.
Ooh, and before I forget...I am using as my camera my mother's smartphone. The quality is NOT great and it is pretty laggish so you are warned. There is literally NOTHING I can do about that, so I apologise in advanced for that. And perhaps if I really, really love doing this, I will open a "Get the Gryphon A Webcam" commission fund and if I can raise enough for a decent webcam, I will start streaming all the time, and with great quality...So yea! (And on a selfish note I will already have a webcam that I can take along when I get into the military so I can skype with mah peeps) And after a little bit of googling I think if I can get at least 30USD, I can get a pretty good, HD(ish) webcam with a high enough FPS rate that my recordings will be crisp. :D Im looking at one that is about 50USD, but if I can get 30....I'll willingly pitch in the other 20. (More specfically, I'll have my mommy dearest pitch in the other 20. So yea.)
Anyways, you can join me at http://www.ustream.tv/channel/mieyth-doodles
Ooh, and anouther side note my sister and parental units will interrupt me from time to time, so don't freak out if I randomly start talking to somebody off screen. I'm not insane. It's just mah mommy and daddy.

Great Stream today. :)
Posted 13 years agoI had, I think, a pretty good stream to day. It was about an hour and a half, damn does time fly!
There were a handfull of people there, and I want to thank ya'll for showing up. Hopefully about 1am Central tomorrow I should be back up, doing this again. I'll be doing the Golden Sands work then a few requests.
Oooh, and if I eventually start getting enough people watching me, I would love to purchase an actual webcam to do this with so I can stream with higher quality. So yea...if there is interest I'll open for a "Buy the Gryphon a Camera Commission Run"

Ustream!
Posted 13 years agoI have had a Ustream account for about...two or so years now, but never used it for anything but being able to chat on live channels. Until today. :P
I learned this afternoon that there is an App for smart phones that allow one to view and use Ustream as if you had a computer and webcam, so from now on I will occasionally abscond with my mother's phone (as I do not, and don't wish to have one hers will have to do) and do random streams of me working on...what ever I am doing. I will most likely be doing a test today to work up some sort of rigging for the phone and testing to see if the camera is of good enough quality to actually see what I am working on.
If you would like to join me, that would be awesome! Give me live critiques, chat, bug me, yell at me saying I should listen to some interesting music instead of podcasts and the oldies. Hell, I might even take some requests or two depending on the mood.
Actually, I think tonight I will be working on page 4 of The Golden Sands and I think I'll take a few really quick requests if I get anybody in the channel.
So, if you want, come see me here: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/mieyth-doodles
I should be broad casting starting 10 or 11 ish Central Time. (Some time after sunset)

#GryphonArtistProblems
Posted 13 years ago...Drawing gryphons blowing someone is really hard. (Pun intended)
Beaks and blowjobs don't mix, along with looking just plain painfull, the blower looks like they are about to chop off the blowee's penis.
#gryphonartistproblems
Only in the furryfandom would one have this issue.
....That is all.

Golden Stands and a Story
Posted 13 years agoI just want to give a little announcement. In a few days, I should start posting up pages from Golden Sands, a comic collaboration between me and 
gryor as they are completed. So...hopefully by next week that will start happening.
Also another note, I am thinking about posting some of my stories, essays, novel bits and what ever literary works I feel is suitable to post. I do write them now in notebooks first, and as I hate typing, they will come very slowly.
And...That is all. :P

Quick Thanks!
Posted 13 years agoHey Guys!
You know, I want to post a little thanks to all my watchers!
The past few weeks I have been worried and stressed about my future, but I have also been drawing much more then normal due to my sudden free time. But I have noticed a sudden increase in comments, faves, shouts, watches etc and I really, really, really want to thank all of you guys for the support. Really. I...I don't know what to say. It means so much to have ya'll giving so much positive feed back, even a simple fav makes my day.
Thank you. <3

Something random I have noticed...
Posted 13 years agoWell, as the title says, I have started to notice my sudden interest in drawing porn. The reason why it is strange is because I don't really watch or view specifically pornographic material -be it furry or otherwise. Yet...I find it fun to draw.
Oh, and I draw it (Well, I draw a lot of normal stuff too...but still) in public. Yup. Well, public being...Highschool. Yea...good thing nobody actually watches me when I draw. :P

Comic Storyboarding Help
Posted 13 years agoI will close this in ONE week. If I get no responses in that time, I have an alternate project I will work on instead.
Hey guys. I really, really, really want to make a short comic. (Max at about 50ish pages) over the course of the summer. Just a simple black and white comic.
The only issue is...I fail at storyboarding.
Don't get me wrong. I am a writer. I love to compose stories, flesh out characters, delve into the plot and the like. But...for some reason the story I want to create the most...will not come to me.
I am prepared of course to continue working on it solo, but I would like to ask my watchers if anyone wants to do a collaboration on this comic? You don't have to be the best, or even great at writing, just willing to dedicate some time into helping me create a new world. I don't know what I could give you in return...I could draw some stuff for you and of course your name would be on the comic as well.
Now, here is the basic premise of the story:
Set a long time ago in an unmarked time, set in a world inequivalent to the old Middle East, before the modernised western world came around. Most of the story takes place in a brothel called The Golden Sands. The main characters are two gryphons. Ishatar a well known mercenary that is often employed as a guard for caravans. Straight. Muscular. Tall. And the next person is also a gryphon. Hawk based. I don't know if I want it to be a male or female. Regardless, this gryphon is going to be a whore at the The Golden Sands. Pretty much this is going to be a relationship between the two and a quest for freedom. (whore, from the brothel and Ishatar from all the blood he has spilt)
I must admit, I am kinda obbssessed with the old middle eastern culture so, yea. The story should reflect a good amount of things like that, plot and art wise.
Pretty much all I need to say, as been said. Hopefully.
If you are interested comment, note me, or email me at devin.a.johnston9@gmail.com
